Guns, chemicals, incubators and books on explosives are just some of the things found in a northeast Albuquerque home. Action 7 News learned the liquids were so foreign to the officers, the house was taped off and a hazmat crew was called in.

The Albuquerque Police Department said the things found inside the home on the 89-hundred block of Spain Road may sound "bizarre" and "dangerous," but are not illegal. In fact, the two suspects are charged with crimes that have little to do with what was found inside the home.

The ______ County Attorney said, He shot three times in the direction of the victim and expressed a desire to blow up his house and kill his family."

Joe Dauteuil, 32 years old, appeared in court today. He is charged with attempted murder after police say he shot at a man he was arguing with three times. The victim survived.

There was a fight to raise Daunteil's bond, because of what was allegedly found in his home.

"Hazmat teams were called in from the National Guard, this was a huge mobilization effort because of what was found in the defendants home," said County Attorney ______.

Officers originally came to question Dauteuil about the alleged shooting but once inside, they had to call for backup.

"When you think its an aggravated assault charge and you walk into unknown chemicals, that's a very scary situation for officer," said Albuquerque Police Department PIO Trish Hoffman.

Inside Dauteuil's house, officers say they found items associated with making meth, but no drugs. Detectives also found guns, knives, incubators, books on explosives, ball bearings, fireworks and five gallon glass containers with an unknown clear fluid.

The fluids are being tested. Police are worried about the items, but may not be able to take action.

"It's obviously a concern when officers see that of course, but you can have books in your house, you can have books on drugs, you can have books on how to hurt people," said Hoffman.

Dauteuil is being held on 120-thousand dollar bond for the alleged shooting. His friend, Angela Pender is charged with conspiracy and tampering with evidence for allegedly hiding the gun Dauteuil used.

Police said right now they don't have enough evidence to charge Dauteuil with drug possession or manufacturing of meth, but once the chemical tests are back that could change.

Also, they said the items found in the home, can be used to make explosives, but investigators didn't find an actual explosive in the home. The earliest A.P.D. would get those chemical results is next week.
